Build Day 18- Engine Electrics

Day 18- Engine Electrics 


Engine Electrics

As there are a lot of cables to connect and also the battery leads to bolt on we spent an evening dedicated to this. Firstly we went through the manual, only to discover it only describes only 2 or three of wires actually there, which was of little help as these were evidently for an old loom with different coloured connections. We then progressed onto several others blogs to try and get a picture as to where half of them go.


Alternator and starter motor wiring.

As I wasn't under the car doing the wiring, only; giving moral support taking photos, taking the mick out of dad, and later measuring up cooling hoses; I Actually have no idea what he decided was possibly the right wiring. However we still do not know whether any of these connections are right so we'll have to ask derrick and do some more research.


Earth strap from chassis (bolt in engine mounting) to alternator mount. Also sprayed anti corrosion spray into all connections. 

Oil Temperature Sensor Connection.

Couldn't find a home for these... as are a few others they may be unused, but we will double check with Derrick.
